The current situation concerning motorization level, traffic conditions, technical infrastructure, rules of public transport organization and degree of preparation and realization of policies and transport development programs is diversity in Polish cities. One of the main problems in Polish cities is poorly integration of transport systems in cities which is not favorable to intermodal travels universality (travelling with usage of few transport means). The term of integration is popularly used in public transport for solutions provide the “door to door” travel continuity. There is a lot of public transport integration levels: spatial, infrastructural, organizational, economical and information. There are characterized tools urban transport integration which have to entourage to use public transport and limit private car. An examples concern the solution of urban public transport integration in the country and world can be quoted of some solutions:
- Implementation of the uniform tariff system e.g. electronic ticket –London-Oyster card for public transport in London, Krakow – integrated tariff on the Krakow-Krzeszowice route with possibility of travel by public transport in Krakow (bus, tram), Warsaw – integrated ticket for all means of public transport (metro, bus, tram),
- interchanges which make easier the changes between different means of transport - Nantes, Canada, Madryt, Lyon,
- share lanes for means of public transport ( Berlin, Genua, Amsterdam – share bus and tram lanes, Bogota – two parallel separate bus lanes in each direction, Utrecht – temporary separated with traffic signalization bus lane operated against the stream),
- share bus and tram stops - Nantes, Goteborg, Zurych, Poznan, Wroclaw , Krakow, - share bus-tram routes – Oberhausen.
